So, I'm obsessed with red lipstick - especially during the day - on other people, but the problem is I don't own a red lippy.
You see, the last time I sported this bold look was about three years ago at my uni final fling, where I got so drunk I lost the brand new Mac lippy I'd bought especially for the occasion (Russian Red, I think) and could never bring myself to fork out again, until now.
This is that fateful night... (Hi Callum!)
So now I think I'm going to go for the same again, or Ruby Woo. I want a matt, bold, opaque red, but one that's not too brassy, al la les Olsens. Wish me luck!
That is one of my all-time favourite Olsen pictures.
ReplyDeletegood idea ;) i'm tempted to try some dark vino color...
ReplyDeleteOoh yes - I tried the Topshop vamp lippy the other day, but it made me look like Lydia in Beetlejuice, not a sexy vixen as hoped!
ReplyDeleteIt realllllly suits you - ruby woo is a winner, and dita's fave! x
ReplyDeleteCheers Soph! When pay day dawns I'll be off to the yellow church (Selfridges) to get sorted!
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely get back on the red lippy. I've just bought Rimmel's Signature Red and it's the perfect shade, and stayed on all day with just a few little top-ups.
ReplyDeleteThanks for following me, hope you like the blog! x
I'm loving it lady! Ooh I might try the Rimmel one before a Mac splurge, thanks for the tip off! xxx
